We would like to bring to your attention certain legislation
enacted by several states that curtails or prohibits the sale and
application of many types of oil-based paint coatings. This kind of
legislation could result in the restricted availability of oil-base
paints. With this in mind, choosing the best possible latex paint is
becoming a very important consumer issue.
Manufacturing and marketing of
latex paints began in the 19405. The
research and development of these
paints are not new to Harrison Paint
Corp. and they are now our most
popular consumer coatings.
We offer the highest quality and
the most complete line of interior
and exterior latex paints available.
